Description:

Politics is the study of power and how power operates in all its forms: through individuals, structures, internationally and domestically. Its principal focus is on power relations among individuals, social groups and nations. Philosophers seek to answer questions of universal importance about the nature of reality, our knowledge of the world, and the truth of our existence. This Joint Honours degree will provide you with the skills to explore the philosophical and political landscape of human consciousness throughout time and place. You will gain a firm grasp of political and current affairs, understand the news headlines, seeing beyond them to the real issues of politics, and be in a better position to comment upon and understand what the politicians are really saying.

A wide variety of options mean you can pursue your own interests – with things becoming increasingly flexible as you progress through the course. We also offer opportunities to learn with a language. With practical skills training, including advanced analytical approaches, as well as the opportunities to study abroad – with all the experience that brings – this degree opens doors to a range of interesting and rewarding career possibilities and provides the skills to progress to higher research programmes.
